Chapter 358 57. Mason has already paid up, and now he is waiting to give some rockets to the old man who is about to debut
The man Mason admires most and the man he admires second most get into a fight in the Batcave.
So far, there is no clear winner.
Of course, this is based on the fact that it is the first time for both parties to deal with each other. If the old man is given another chance, then the old wolf's chance of winning will be infinitely close to zero.
After all, his trump card has been almost touched by the master, and the prototype of an "anti-Wolverine tactic" has already taken shape in his mind.
Of course, as a "chip" that prompted the two old men to sit down and discuss, the young man who was held hostage was obviously very unhappy.
This dissatisfaction comes from the shameless sneak attack of the old wolf, and also comes from the fact that my own growth rate cannot keep up with the speed of these monsters and snakes.
It made him feel Alexander.
A few minutes later, the old wolf, wearing the clothes sent by Old Afu, stood in front of the phantom cat's biological cabin. He looked at the compatriots in front of him who were moaning in pain with a complicated expression.
He stroked the bulkhead and said in a dumb voice:
"I was ready to die. It was the best grave I could find for myself, but I was ready to face relief.
But Death doesn't want me.
It says my mission is still unfinished.
It said I didn't deserve such clean and merciful relief.
It wants me to stay in this world and continue to suffer. It will not allow me to go to hell until my sins are paid off.
However, I didn’t expect that this child would be the one who rescued me in the end.”
"Child?"
Xiao Shen grabbed a burger and ate it nearby to replenish energy, while complaining:
"This lady looks much older than you, Logan."
"Really?"
The old wolf shook his head and said:
"But I grew up watching her, and I'm almost three hundred years old. I thought I'd seen enough grief but it turns out I'm not used to it yet.
Is this the world Mason grew up in? ”
He turned back to look at the master with the cloak swelled, and his eyes fell on the latter's black bat helmet.
He couldn't help but complain:
"When Mason told me your story, I thought he was doing some artistically appropriate exaggeration, but I didn't expect that someone would actually use the bat as their symbol.
How did you overcome your shame and walk around in this poor city wearing such clothes?
Aren't your enemies laughing to death at your dressing up? ”
"Probably because they were scared to death before they laughed."
The master said quietly:
"So you don't have the fear to laugh at my disguise. Tell me a story about you and Mason, Logan, as part of a mutual trust."
“There’s actually nothing to say.”
The old wolf touched his heart.
He could feel that a foreign object was embedded in his heart in the previous quantum explosion. If it was a coincidence, it would be a bit insulting to the shocking explosion of the self-destructed captain.
Logan is more willing to believe that this may be the last "gift" from Nathaniel Adam.
The gentle but unlucky guy knew that the old wolf was about to travel far away, so he gave him this object of power in the hope that the old wolf in another world could do greater things.
"Are there any cigarettes?"
he asked.
The master made a gesture.
Alfred quickly delivered a high-end cigar for his enjoyment and a bottle of table wine that could soothe his nerves. The mellow smell made the old wolf raise his eyebrows.
As an immortal for more than three hundred years, he was able to judge from these details that Mason's description of Wayne's wealth was not an exaggeration.
This is a super guy in front of me!
In the following time, while Logan plucked the master's wool, he told the original story of what had just happened in his home world, including the logical link between the Council of Stars and the Council of Hope guessed by Mason.
This was very valuable information, which made the master raise his eyebrows.
He feels that this can be made into a plan to refute when a companion proposes an appeasement strategy in the future. As for the encounter in Mason's home world, it can also be used as a reference for the confrontation tactics that can be adopted in the subsequent confrontation with the Star Council.
"You said Mason used the Atlanteans' doomsday weapons to destroy that evil nest-like world?"
After hearing this story, Xiao Shan couldn't help but sigh and said:
"Captain Atom still couldn't escape that fate. He is actually a very good person. I talked to him after he sobered up. His knowledge of quantum states is really valuable."
"Don't be sad about Adam's death, the fast kid."
Logan drank a lot of wine, blew out another smoke ring, and said:
"He died a worthy death. He brought a bunch of bastards to be buried with him. This is the best destination for a warrior. Can you send me to Mason?"
He said:
"I have to go see him. My family is still over there. In addition, you can't cure Phantom Cat's injury. She was caused by the chaos caused by the Red Skull's repeated torture with psychic power.
Emma might be able to cure her, poor child. ”
Xiao Shen glanced at the old man, who said:
"Stay here for the night. I will get in touch with Mason and send you there at an appropriate time. You have to understand that everything related to him must be taken seriously in this world."
"I know, he told me."
The old wolf nodded and said:
"You should be cautious, but I'm curious, are there any other dangerous guys besides you in this manor?"
"Huh?"
The master narrowed his eyes and said hoarsely:
"Why do you say that?"
"My senses are telling me that there is something very dangerous here."
The old wolf moved his body uncomfortably, pointed to the top of his head, and said:
"It's a very confusing thing, similar to the feeling I had when facing the Red Skull. I have no evidence, but I believe my feelings will not lie to me.
That thing is hidden in this house. ”
His statement moved the master's heart.
This feeling seemed to coincide with something that Batman had been secretly investigating recently. An unbearable weird feeling made the master clenched his fist.
He glanced at Xiao Shen, who was a little uneasy, and Damian, who had been extremely well-behaved in recent days.
The master is now basically sure that Barry and Mason must have brought back something related to him from the war world, but is it a surprise?
Or frightened? ——
"This is your hero certificate, please carry it with you at all times!"
At the Metropolitan Hall of Justice headquarters, the receptionist with a sweet smile handed an exquisite card to the man in black with both hands, and John Wick, who had disguised himself, took the thing.
He glanced at the message on the card.
Hero Nickname: Night Devil
Hero Positioning: Melee Assaulter, Stealth Assassin
Hero Powers: Super Archery, Super Senses, Super Stamina.
Recommended by: Batman
Activity area: Gotham, Metropolis
This membership card produced by the Justice League not only has the above information, but also has a strange hexagonal ability chart on the back, which outlines his strength positioning based on the abilities that John Wick filled out when applying for hero status.
Of course, as an assassin saint trained in the Isu world, he could not fill in all his abilities.
The card in his hand is useless most of the time, unless he encounters trouble and can show it to the official to obtain various support and support from the Justice League.
And because Batman was responsible for creating this system, there is a locator hidden in this card of course.
"Thank you."
Wick, who was dressed in black, politely thanked the reception staff, and then was led into the Hall of Justice by specialized staff to familiarize himself with the environment.
While observing his surroundings, he thought in his mind:
“With this identity, I can openly participate in various actions of the Justice League, so as to better observe their action patterns, strengths and weaknesses.
The Brotherhood needs this information, and Lady Cassandra needs my eyes to see this future ally. However, the heroes of this world seem to be a little too high-profile, which will cause them unnecessary trouble. ”
He summarized the information in his mind.
The enhancement from the Isu bloodline allowed him to notice details that ordinary people could not notice, and his stay in this world did not waste even a little time.
He is a pioneer and messenger, and observation and recording are his tasks.
“Can I take pictures?”
Wick asked the staff in front of him. After getting permission, he took out his mobile phone and planned to take some pictures of the Hall of Justice to take back for analysis.
But as soon as the phone was unlocked, a message jumped on the screen.
This message is very strange and does not have a sender, but is presented in the form of a draft. There is only one sentence in it:
"Hurry up and install a chip! John Wick! You already know my existence, so don't be like V and just think that I am a figment in your mind.
I need to talk to you! Aren't you looking for allies?
I can give you allies! ”
The message was signed "Johnny Silverhand," a name that made Wick frown, and he reached out to delete the draft of the message.
This isn't the first time he's done this.
Ever since he heard Judy tell the story of Johnny Silverhand at the Afterlife Bar some time ago, this ghost-like data body has been haunting him.
It's like the beginning of a classic horror story, where some taboos are accidentally violated and the dead guy is seduced back from hell.
In the past few days, this guy has been using various methods to intimidate and try to contact Wick.
But for an assassin saint, he would not open a slot in his brain to install a chip, not to mention that the story about Johnny Silverhand he heard from Judy did not make him feel Comfortable.
He didn't like this crazy anarchist.
However, this haunting guy is indeed a hidden danger, and he cannot be allowed to haunt him all the time. Maybe it is time for him to ask for some external assistance.
Mason Cooper, the Brotherhood's non-staff assassin master, should have a solution, right?
"Hey, is this a new member? It's very unfamiliar, brother."
Wick walked into the training area of the Hall of Justice and came face to face with a guy wearing a vest. He greeted him very familiarly. Looking at the card on his chest, you knew that he was also a local hero.
But when he got closer, the assassin saint suddenly frowned.
This guy!
The smell is not right!
He watched the guy he passed by leave the hall. Seeing how he greeted the people around him, he seemed to be quite popular here, but Wick just felt that there was something wrong with this guy.
Like...an actor?
He squinted his eyes, memorizing this man's appearance and appearance, then completed his tour of the Justice League headquarters and returned to his hiding place, where he took out the cross-world liaison device.
The most important thing right now is to get rid of the lingering data ghost in himself.
A moment later, Mason, who was participating in the awakening ceremony of the first batch of aliens in Attilan City, took the time to look at his flip phone. The message signed John Wick made him raise his eyebrows.
Then he clicked on the message and took a look, which made Mason's expression become even weirder.
"He was entangled by a data body calling himself 'Johnny Silverhand'? This is really evil. Will space-time aliens attract each other?
However, Judy seemed to have said before that Silverhand's data had disappeared in the black wall, and then it suddenly appeared again, as if there was some conspiracy hidden there. ”
Sitting in the audience seat above the Awakening Hall filled with Terrigen crystal mist, Mason rubbed his brow and said softly:
"My 'trouble radar' was activated, and I sensed there was another damn situation that required my intervention."
"If it's just this problem, it's actually quite easy to solve. If he doesn't want to imitate people in the 2077 era and install a brain-computer interface into his brain, he can only use Isu technology."
The Isu ghost Consus was also attracted by the news about John Wick. He appeared next to Mason like a ray of light and suggested to him:
"My brother, you can make a healing shroud for the White Queen while also making one for John Wick. Just use your cloak at this time as a sample and give it the ability to store biological information imprints.
< br>
In this way, the data entity named Johnny Silverhand can live next to Wick without affecting his health. ”
"We can also put several concealed bugs and data collection devices into it."
Mason nodded slightly and said:
"This way, no matter what Johnny Silverhand and Wick are talking about, we can intercept the necessary information."
"But, my brother, the trouble you just mentioned, do you think Johnny Silverhand's sudden appearance means something unplanned?"
Consus asked:
"But you have established strategic cooperation with the Afterlife Team, and you should trust them."
"I trust them, but the Afterlife Team and the civilization of the 2077 world are two different concepts. Consus, the Afterlife Team is just the guardian of the data civilization.
It can be seen from the conversation between Arasaka Hanako and me that even in the cyberspace carried by mikoshi, they have different ideas and plans for the future of the world. ”
Mason stood and clapped along with the others.
Looking at the new aliens emerging from the Terrigen Mist in front of me, just like when mutants awaken, the aliens will occasionally change their appearance when they awaken.
Therefore, some of the first batch of young aliens born seventeen years after the nuclear explosion looked strange, but this did not affect the old man Black Bat who was now in tears.
His people were born again, and his civilization set sail again
Amidst the applause, Mason explained softly to Consus, who was also applauding:
"There are real data lives in the mysterious cyberspace, Ultra is just one of them, and after the woman who was close to Johnny came into contact with Cyborg, Cyborg stripped off some of his own threads.
The master told me about this, but I didn’t think it was anything before.
But now Silverhand suddenly appears next to Wick and is eager to get in touch with Wick, which shows that those data beings really seem to have their own ideas.
They haven't made contact with us yet, but we have to be prepared. ”
"Well, your analysis makes sense, but I was negligent."
Consus nodded and said:
"It seems that John Wick, as the envoy of the Isu world, has been noticed by the envoy sent by another civilization. This may represent another alliance.
My brother, the forces in your favor are growing stronger.
This is a great good thing. ”
"Maybe."
Mason was not so optimistic, and it was too far away.
"Didi Didi"
The sound of new communication access interrupted the chat between Mason and Consus. He glanced at the source of the information and quietly retreated to the corner of the entrance to the hall.
As the communication was activated, the heavily armed Ergong's iconic red barrel helmet appeared in front of him, with the background facing the green Salar Road Pool.
Ertong reports to:
"Mason, the showdown with the second Demon Leader is about to begin. Do you want to watch the live broadcast?" (End of Chapter)
